Labor-intensive paper-based invoice handling has plagued accounts payable (AP) departments for decades. Arcplace Automated Invoice Processing solutions help organizations to eliminate paper, achieve real-time visibility, improve control, and boost efficiency. A further optimization of the Purchase-to-Pay (P2P) process can be achieved by adding e-Procurement capabilities.
The Arcplace solutions help organisations to digitize and automate the following steps of the accounts payable process:
1. Invoice Reception
For paper invoices, Arcplace offers solutions for efficiently scanning and capturing invoice data. PDF invoices can be processed using the same capture technology or by using a service, that allows extracting data from PDF files in a fully automated matter. For e-invoices, Arcplace offers solutions for receiving e-invoices from national and international payment providers.
2. Processing
In order to maximize automation, matching is used for invoices that have purchase orders or contracts associated to them. For other invoices, advanced logic and artificial intelligence is used to transfer the invoices to the appropriate people within the organization and for minimizing coding efforts.
3. Archiving
Arcplace offers solutions for archiving the invoice together with their audit trails and invoice attachments. The archiving solutions allow organizations to archive invoices in compliance with both national and international laws and regulations.
